Art in the Park

Join us for an open‑air sketching workshop in Forty Hall Park, surrounded by trees, green space and views of the landscape. Led by illustrator and art teacher Annette Agard‑Vernon, this friendly, informal session takes place entirely outdoors and explores nature and natural forms through simple, guided drawing exercises. The emphasis is on looking, enjoying the surroundings and building creative confidence. This workshop is open to everyone, from complete beginners to more experienced sketchers who would like to draw outside and reconnect with their creativity. No previous drawing experience is needed, and all sketching materials are provided. Please bring a picnic blanket or portable chair, dress for the weather, and feel free to bring snacks and drinks. Meeting point: Forty Hall Museum Reception Ages: 14+ (under‑14s must be accompanied by an adult)
